[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1476425, member: 39764"] Interesting thread. I never shoot factory ammo (unless it's the Hornady ballistic tipped 452's in my 460 XVR Smith and Wesson revolver). Everything else is custom loaded Bergers in Lapua or Nosler brass (Lapua don't make a 300 WM case). If Berger don't coin it, Swift does. I'd suggest buying a Berger manual (and read it as you might find it interesting), Berger bullets propellant, good single stage press, dies (bushing preferred) concentricity guage, dial calipers, Hornady COAL and PG&T chamber gauge and learn how to roll your own. I can get any stick to shoot sub moa at 250 yards, no problem, do it all the time. Don't forget the primers too. Federal or CCI. Stay away from Winchester, they have hard cups. Only thing I use a 100 yard benchmark for is initial load development and calculation velocity. After that, it's out to 200 then 250. I have no love for factory loads expect the 460 and of course rimfire 22's and 17's. [/QUOTE]
